  301.  
  302. A. All disputes and claims relating to REX, its products, the Representative Agreement, or the REX Compensation Plan, including but not limited to (1) the rights and obligations of the Representative and REX, (2) any other claims or causes of action relating to the performance of either the Representative or REX under the Representative Agreement or the Rules and Regulations, and/or (3) the Representative’s purchase of REX products shall be settled totally and finally by arbitration in Las Vegas, Nevada or such other location as REX prescribes, in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Louisiana residents may arbitrate in New Orleans. There shall be one arbitrator, an attorney at law, who shall have expertise in business law transactions with preference being an attorney knowledgeable in the direct selling industry, selected from the panel that the American Arbitration Association provides. Each party to the arbitration shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses of arbitration, including legal and filing fees. If the Representative files a claim or counterclaim against REX, the Representative shall do so on an individual basis and not with any other Representative or as part of a class action. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties and may if need be, be reduced to a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive any termination or expiration of the Representative Agreement.
  303.  
  304. B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrator shall have no jurisdiction over disputes relating to the ownership, validity or registration of any mark or other intellectual property or proprietary confidential information of REX without REX prior written consent.

  305.  
  306. C. Nothing in this rule shall prevent REX from applying to and obtaining from any court having jurisdiction a writ of attachment, a temporary injunction, preliminary injunction and/or other injunctive or emergent relief available to safeguard and protect REX interest prior to the filing of or during or following any arbitration or other proceeding or pending the handing down of a decision or award in connection with any arbitration or other proceeding.
  307.  
  308. D. The existence of any claim or cause of action of the Representative against REX, whether predicated on the Representative Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to REX’s enforcement of the Representative’s covenants and agreements contained in the Representative Agreement or the Rules.
  309.  
  310. Jurisdiction and Venue
  311.  
  312. The Representative Agreement and the Rules shall be construed enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without reference legal principles that would cause the law of another jurisdiction to be applied. Causes of action between the parties hereto of any type, whether on the Representative Agreement, on fraud or any other tort, or grounded in principles of strict liability or statutes of any kind, shall be heard exclusively in a court of competent jurisdiction in Las Vegas, Nevada, each party hereby submitting to the jurisdiction of such courts and expressly waiving the right to bring suit in all other courts. In any cause of action the winner shall be entitled to recovery of all reasonable attorney fees, court costs and other costs of the action. Louisiana residents may choose Louisiana law, jurisdiction, and venue, and may arbitrate in New Orleans.
  313.  
  314. Limitation of damages
  315.  
  316. To the extent permitted by law, REX and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and other representatives shall not be liable for, and the Representative hereby releases the foregoing from and waives any claim for loss of profit, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages which may arise out of any claim whatsoever relating to REX’s performance, non-performance, act, or omission with respect to the business relationship or other matters between the Representative and REX whether sounding in contract, tort, or strict liability.
